She does't use it simply because its an ability in her moveset. Would it give her bigger lightning? Sure, but Sparda would do that as well. I'm not saying she should avoid elecric weapons, i'm saying she she already has lightning powers and that she isn't looking for more.

Guns are actually kinda weak. Thats why she either infuses them with lightning or just shoots.

Your analogy fails in that i'm not saying Magneto shouldn't have a metal sword. I'm saying that he shouldn't bother with a sword that gives him magnetism abilities, Jean Grey shouldn't bother with a device that grants psionic immunity if she is already capable of it.

Dante can control his energy/weapon elements out of DT to some degree.

Costumes are non-canon. What their DT shows doesn't matter.
